Of course, the addictive voice will use any excuse to make you "grab life by the throat" and "enjoy life"...which of course is shorthand for "start drinking again." By now you know better.
Please keep us informed and know you're in our thoughts.
Oh Yes. The addictive voice is an old enemy of mine! You can be sure I've got my ear to the ground in that department! As it happens, I take so many blood pressure pills for my heart situation that if I had a single drink I might well keel over. I haven't the slightest urge to do that. What I've got is anxiety with the usual cancer fears. Determined to look at all the options and not be stampeded into treatments which result in big bucks for M.D.'s and possible risks and aftereffects for patients.
